He uses the phrase "everybody knows" ---as in "everybody knows Ocasio is a communist"...or "everybody knows she hates America".....class fallacy in logic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum
No they weren't. They regurgitated what they have been saying since they took office. There was nothing new here. They were anything but "well spoken." They did nothing but hurl insults. There was nothing substantive.

President Trump was right in his criticism of these four renegades. They have been disrespectful of America, of our system, and of our President, simply because they disagree with him on issues of immigration. Most Americans, however, agree with the President. Our laws must be enforced. We cannot have open borders, which means we have no country.

Worse, these four, and some other Democrats, are advocating for dispensing with "citizenship" altogether, choosing to favor the term, "residence." That would be the end of America as we know it.

The only "anti-American hatred" was uttered by Trump. And you're right, the country will never unite behind Donald J. Trump, he can't even get to 50% approval consistently.

As a Moderate I will say they were better spoken than they usually are, but they were disingenuous in the cries of representing everyone. They've been antisemitic, racist, intolerant of even fellow Dems not deemed far left enough, and generally contemptuous of average working American values. I suspect the only thing they like about this country is it'll make them rather wealthy within a few years, far beyond what their earnings might otherwise indicate is possible. It is what happens after people get elected to Congress.

I've tried over and over again to support our president as I feel in order to be a strong Nation we have to support our leaders. However Trump just makes it harder and harder for Patriots like myself to support him when he displays his lack of true understanding of what it means to be an American. I simply can't support it, and I feel like any of those running on the left atleast have a basic understanding of what it means to be american. Enough is enough and Trump has got to go I'm officially anything, but Trump 2020.

Him telling Americans for the most part born here to go back to where they came from is idiotic to say the least as his own grandparents aren't from here. What in his mind makes him more of an American than them? Can someone please enlighten me.

Demanding open borders and free healthcare to anyone who walks across the border with no way to pay for it, is the left thinking. Only an idiot would believe that crap, but whatever ever gives you guys that tingle down your leg.

That's all that matters in Washington.... haven't you figured it out?

Democrats sweetly say how much they're going to tax the bejesus out of you and their base eats it up because they say it nicely.

The substance of Trump's tweet about improving the countries that these migrants are fleeing from went right over their heads ......

Because all they care about is the political points they can get from the "Go back home" part of what he said.

Just because Democrats believe Israel should be less harsh to Palestinians and stop stealing their land doesn't make them antisemitic. You can have policy disagreements with the Israeli government without hating all Jews. It's a dishonest label, frankly.

I think it's laughable that they pulled this stunt on a Monday.

Front page tomorrow for sure. NY Post will be a hoot!
